What we do
FOSS4G 2017
Loca1onTech
• Partner of, among others OGC, OSGeo (FOSS4GNA, projects, sponsoring)
• More than just a community of developers • An ecosystem of service suppliers, projects and end-‐user organiza1ons
• Collabora1ve market development for OS geospa1al • Commercially friendly temporal-‐spa1al aware so\ware
• Special focus on Big Geospa1al Data
FOSS4G 2017
Focus
• Mission • To be the interna1onal pla]orm for sustainable technical and commercial collabora1on for open geospa1al
• Focus • Commercial and technical value add to members • Diversity of end-‐users and partnerships • Big Geospa1al Data tools and applica1ons
• Strategic execu1on • Recruit projects for por]olio gaps (e.g. 3D, Geocoder) • Create projects in house (JTS2, RPE) • Increase and broaden the user-‐base

The future is Big Geospa1al Data
• Sensors, satellites and social networking • 20% growth rate per year
• The 80-‐20 rule • The geospa1al component
• Ac1onable intelligence • monitor, manage, interpret, edit
• The limits of open spa1al components and tools • Volume, velocity, variability
FOSS4G 2017
Loca1onTech GeoMesa
FOSS4G 2017
• A collec1on of libraries and modules which can be used to solve Big Geospa1al Data challenges.
• Management of billions to trillions of vector data • Well suited for streaming vector data • Spark SQL support • Improved support for HBase and Cassandra backends • New Cloud Storage support (S3, Azure Blobstore, etc)
Loca1onTech GeoWave
• A so\ware library connec1ng scalability of distributed compu1ng frameworks and key-‐value stores with modern geospa1al so\ware to store, retrieve and analyze big geospa1al datasets.
• Scalabel design • Interac1ve 1me and/or loca1on specific queries • Mul1-‐dimensional indexing to ao. Accumulo, HBase, BigTable
• GeoServer plugin to share and visualize geospa1al data in a GeoWave datastore via OGC standard services
FOSS4G 2017
Loca1onTech GeoTrellis
• A framework to process large and small data sets with low latency by distribu1ng the computa1on across mul1ple threads, cores, CPUs and machines.
• ability to rapidly process and distribute processing of raster data • data import and conversion tools for the ARG data structure • designed to help create simple, standard REST services
FOSS4G 2017
Loca1onTech GeoGig
• A Distributed Version Control System specially designed to handle geospa1al data efficiently.
• inspira1on from the source code versioning system Git • import raw geospa1al data (currently from Shapefiles, PostGIS, MS SQLServer, or Spa1aLite) in to a repository • every change to the data is tracked • versioning, branched into sandboxed areas, merged back and pushed to remote repositories.
